The latest Active Time Report from Final Fantasy XV director Hajime Tabata has provided a few new details about the long-awaited game. Alongside these peppered reveals are also a few burning questions people have been wanting to ask Tabata, starting off with a piping-hot confirmation that button presses (or \'button mashing\') are still an option for XV\'s combat system. Previously it was reported that the blocking button could be held down or tapped to evade continuously or with timing, but…

Final Fantasy XV - Battle System Analysis Final Fantasy XV\'s battle system has changed somewhat from what was shown off in the E3 2013 trailers. So let\'s take a closer look at how the game plays now based on the TGS 2014 trailers: UI The UI seen in the TGS 2014 trailers is not final. But it\'s still worth analysing as it has changed and now is no longer like a Kingdom Hearts command menu. The menu to the lower right shows the active party…

Final Fantasy Type-0\'s screenshots feature Ace…

Nomura\'s departure from Final Fantasy XV is no doubt a troubling situation. Having stayed silent over the course of a year, it became evident that things at Square Enix weren\'t going smoothly when the game failed to show up following E3 2013 despite promises to the contrary. Fast forward to today and we now know that Hajime Tabata has been assigned as the new director, who is now tasked with "completing the production of Final Fantasy XV and ensuring the…

The magazine, which features several additional unreleased images, writes that "A new mysterious woman has been revealed. One can only wonder what her involvement is with Noct and his friends on their journey." Whether or not she bears any relation (or is a replacement) to the game\'s established heroine, Stella Nox Fleuret,…

Hajime Tabata is pursuing the broader audience with Final Fantasy XV, he told Eurogamer last week. In an effort to present the game to a broader audience, players can expect things like one-button combat and an automated car. "With Final Fantasy XV, I do want to make it more casual," he said. "Of course the depth of the game is going to be there, but I want to make it so players can easily experience the satisfaction of the depth…

Skyrim is the sort of game Final Fantasy XV isn\'t

Final Fantasy XV\'s end goal is in sight, says director Hajime Tabata. Speaking with 4Gamer, he outlined a bit of the game, stating that - despite Nomura\'s departure - the fundamental game systems are more or less already implemented.

Tabata\'s plan since taking up the director\'s chair is simple: have progress continue with a set release date in his…

Final Fantasy XV is 55 percent complete after two years of work

As every one of you no doubt knows by now, a brand new trailer was released for Final Fantasy XV during this year\'s Tokyo Game Show. What could be better than that? How about this: It\'s confirmed as being actual, live gameplay and not a target render like much of last year\'s E3 footage. In the wake of such exciting news, we at Nova Crystallis decided it was time for another of our Trailer Analysis articles, and we\'re inviting you…

The name "Duscae" is a location in Final Fantasy XV\'s game world - not a pun on the Japanese words "desu ka" or "Is it?" (which lead to the awkwardly named "Final Fantasy XV: Is it an Episode?"), Hajime Tabata said as he presented the game to an audience at Tokyo Game Show.
